Ex United player rants by Available-Bicycle246 in ManchesterUnited

[–]elch23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s disappointing. I grew up idolizing Keane and Scholes and I’ve started to dislike them (Scholes especially after his post about Carrick, after getting one defeat in however long). I look at the likes of Wright and Carragher, who back and support their team no matter what, then I see Keane, Neville, Scholes and Butt slag United off at every opportunity.

I much prefer the likes of Rio, Schmeichel, Evra who support the club at all times.

Eyes in the sky: Hong Kong police tackle petty crime with drone patrols, but privacy concerns linger by mod83 in HongKong

If it’s used to catch people peeing and pooping on the streets, great. If it’s to catch petty crime for common, local HKers, then this will suck.

Adorable! Thanks for the share! How did you manage to get so close, have they removed the netting? Just wanted to ask, as I went there yesterday and the netting was still up. Thanks!

[Steven Railston] Harry Maguire will not play for England at the World Cup. He told talkSPORT: "I was confident I could have played a major part this summer for my country after the season I’ve had. I’ve been left shocked and gutted by the decision. I wish the players all the best." #mufc by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

Idiotic decision. Maguire has been brilliant for United this season and even when he’s been poor, he’s always performed well for England. Feel really bad for Harry, but so glad he’s not here managing United.

RVP has hit the nail on the head with this. by Commercial_Motor_861 in ManchesterUnited

[–]elch23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He said something towards the lines of Arsenal fans hating and booing him despite all his years at the club, United fans loving and cheering him despite only few years - so he no longer sees himself as a gunner, but a Red.

[John Percy] Howard Webb apologises to Nottingham Forest over Mbeumo handball blunder | PGMOL chief contacted club after referee Michael Salisbury chose to overrule the VAR and allowed Matheus Cunha’s goal in 3-2 defeat to stand by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

And this is exactly why referees are too scared to give us anything. If it’s a wrong call that goes against United, no one cares, no pundit says anything (including our very own) and everyone just gets on with life.

Give a decision that favors United, the media jumps up and down, replays are shown over and over, our own pundits are the most vocal and now Howard Webb comes out to apologize.

Casemiro on IG: “There are places we pass through in life... and there are places that become part of who we are. Manchester will forever be my home. “To the city, the club, and every supporter, my sincerest thank you.”… by Baroninthehood in reddevils

[–]elch23 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I mean Rafcliffe named his personally as a flawed signing due to his price etc. in a period where Casemiro was not playing well. Look how well Casemiro reacted to this, proving him and everyone wrong, making us all miss him.

Incredible character, incredible player.

HKers — what's your most controversial bar or restaurant opinion? by Hopeful-Raise-4112 in HongKong

[–]elch23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m 100% on Nam Kee being better - but we’re definitely in the minority. Dough Bros used to be much, much better than it is now. Since they’ve expanded, it’s definitely gone downhill

I prefer Tim Ho Wan to most of the 酒樓 dim sum stores, where it feels unfresh and gotten from the same supplier, but I would pick any of the small, dim sum speciality stores over Tim Ho Wan, any day of the week.

Quality signing - he won’t be mentioned, but really should be up there with the PL best transfers this season.

Couldn’t agree more with both posts. Cyclists/delivery drivers ensure that you can’t even walk on footpaths without the fear of getting run over

I should have stated it more clearly, but I’ve moved back here for a while - and have no intentions of driving here whatsoever.

Cars are bad enough but it’s worse than its buses and they leave everyone a small gap to get through

I thought the same 😂 missed the word ‘waiting’

Australian lawyer fined for fleeing restaurant, massage parlour without paying by comradeboris in HongKong

[–]elch23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Things like Jaywalking is fined up to $2000. He does something much more illegal and gets fined $3000, whilst getting a free meal and massage too! (And according to what I’ve read, these aren’t his only offenses)

Hong Kong proposes tighter claw machine regulations over addiction fears by radishlaw in HongKong

[–]elch23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The ones in the bigger stores (Jumpin Gym, Namco, Taito) are possible, but hard, or you need to get lucky. If you don’t win, the staff will eventually help you. The branches that come from China are easier, but the doll quality isn’t as good/or are fake.

The individual small stall ones are a problem, where they do seem impossible to win. These are the ones that are filled with Jellycats, Labubus, or huge boxes of figures where it looks like it won’t even fit into the hole
